About this album
Murder Of The Universe is a ferocious concept album that finds King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard pushing their psychedelic garage-rock energy into a darker, more theatrical form. Released in 2017, it is built around a three-part narrative told through narration, recurring motifs and eruptive guitar passages, giving the record a distinctly prog-minded sweep. The album extends the band’s reputation for relentless invention, balancing punishing riffs, frantic rhythms and surreal storytelling with a sharply comic, end-of-the-world tone. For listeners drawn to the group’s most ambitious work, it stands as one of their boldest and most eccentric statements.
